Bintai Healthcare today signed the distribution agreement with SLAB Asia Co Ltd to distribute the full range of Greenie Medi Cold Chain Box products in Malaysia, Brunei, Myanmar, Cambodia, Timor-Leste, Indonesia, Laos, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.

“SLAB Asia is one of the leading cold chain equipment manufacturers in South Korea and operates Korea’s only ISTA 7D/7E certified private test lab which offers international quality assurance,” Bintai Kinden said in a statement today.

ISTA 7D/7E is a test standard set by the Centre for Drug Evaluation and Research under the US Food and Drug Administration in certifying compatibility and adequacy for transporting medical-grade products.

Bintai Kinden managing director Ong Choon Lui said the Greenie Medi Cold Chain Box is the ideal solution for getting temperature-sensitive drugs, biologics and vaccines safely to end users across Malaysia and beyond.

“This is to support the government’s initiatives in vaccine distribution, complement the existing cold chain infrastructure and provide comprehensive solutions to meet critical needs in times like this while supporting the need for Covid-19 vaccine distribution,” he said.

The box was designed exclusively for transporting and storing medical products at a very low temperature of -70℃ for up to 120 hours.

The agreement is not expected to have any material effect on the issued and paid up share capital of Bintai Kinden but will contribute positively towards the future earnings of the group.
